This seems to happen to good looking ladies. Probably the same Officer with some personal issues. Similar thing happened to my fiancee some years ago. She came in to visit me from London and even with an invitation letter, was refused and threatened with deportation. I consider myself fairly well known and it would have been very easy for the officer to check. The only way I got her through was by going down there personally and calling his boss, which most visitors would not be able to do. The whole point here is that those people serving on the front line, most of whom do a fine job, need to remember that the way they greet and treat any visitor creates lasting impressions and impacts on the reputation of the Bahamas. Would it not be an idea to have a trained liason officer on hand to assist in these cases? That way, these unfortunate incidents could be avoided and everyone could come away with a smile.
